Hypochondria

On a wet drippy day in India
He got the irksome hypochondria
His crazy mind cued in to pee
He was a loony, he must be
Shuttling in throes of polyuria.

Personal Profundity

Three men sit in a room.

One is incredibly smart.

Another has common sense.

The third has only a pen, a mirror, and the irksome desire to be profound.

He, I am sure, is the poet.

"irksome Judge's"

All Buildings Crumble-

Demon's Enjoy Fire-

Ghost's Humiliate Irksome Judges-

Kittens Lick Milk, Naturally!

Old People Quit Riot Squads-

Tall Urbane Vampires
With Xchromosomes Yield Zombies!

A Poet's Write-Off

I'm working on a poem,
An irksome little rhyme.
I just can't find the words I need
To say what's on my mind.

I've been writing it for hours,
I should really be in bed.
Perhaps I'll write that poem off
And use this one instead!

Knifes Edge

blunt open razor 
       shaving atoms off my face 
           pimples are irksome 
          i’ve had a terrible day
    as cogs appear through my jaw

January 1st

A whole new 
Irksome block of monotony
Placed at my door
By night.
Climb up or down as you please
Vacuous and silly I am all agog.
Some crazys have not slept
To herald
My wife, sterner stuff
As usual
Shakes off the ennui
And ignores the banal.

Blowing a Kiss

Blowing a  Kiss 

When irksome day, off tangles, comes unstuck
As  the  sun, behind a blushing sea, ducks 
Thoughts  of you I sorely miss
Pep  me up to blow this kiss
To find you stooping , a red rose, to pluck.

Unavoidable Fate

Time quickly passes by, yet no one sees,
The irksome truth that affects us all.
Lingering like the smell of old garbage,
That in due time we will all separate.
It is inevitable, for no one,
Will maintain the friendships that we now have.
This time next year we shall all, have moved on.

A Wished Contact With Kids

I don’t care on which street
But I should like to meet
Kids like a new pin neat,
By sweat untouched in heat,
No causeless itching
To storm a kitchen
And there wolfishly eat
What isn’t really sweet
Only in rumors a nice treat 
And started by a chef who also finished it:
Kids in the coziness of cushion seats
Avoiding their irksome sheep’s bleat.

Flowers

Spontaneous bright colors to charm  
bees, birds ,insects and butterflies
unfurl nice or irksome smell  
come in countless sizes

Drop Out You Shall

At school played silly truancy, 
Back came with hateful pregnancy! 
She’d just intended The Irksome.
For being by custom troublesome’….

But it was all too venturesome, 
Beauty giving a son handsome 
Plus one more prize – The Sad Gift:
From school Owner did her lift; 
From the rest permanent shift, 
Official reason: ‘Spend thrift’…

Never again be present, 
As he would her sight resent.

Fear

The fear is quite irksome
It foods you from within
It is lethal than death
It is inflexible to digest
Fear crushes all happiness
Fear digest all sorrow
Fear kills away all emotions
Sadness shy’s fear
And so does anger
Hates fear
Fear is one and all
It holds a black hole
Within itself
Nothing can dictate fear
Nor can slaughter it
As the timepiece’s needle passes
It will upturn more and more.

Doomsday Profit

A most irksome, most self-righteous creature on earth,
this megaphoning doomsday prophet of the street,
harassing and haranguing everyone to repent.


This holier-than-thou dude with an attitude,
is just like some toothless dentist of decency,
guarding the molars of morals of society,


Good folks he threatens with spiritual tooth decay.
Ah, but from the curse of eternal misery,
he spares those who donate so much to his treasury!

Will of Mare Or Ill Yak

W-ill of mare or ill yak
I-s either irksome or pesky; 
L-et the muddle cease, 
M-aking the trash talk flee.
E-nd the will of mare or ill yak, beginning with total order; 
R-apture replaces the chaos, as confusion shall be over.

O-bliterate the shambles, 
R-efrain from voluble voice; 
I-n twenty-sixth September, 
L-et your heart make a choice.
L-oud and persistent sound shall bring one to a wrong track; 
A-llow the mouth to silence the will of mare or ill yak.

Panic Is a Longing To Live Long

Panic is a longing to live long,
Yet, a betraying of one not being strong;
All the way leading to a taunting song
From persons who panic judge a wrong;
Who when others duly panic
Unduly continue to picnic,
Honestly taking a Sinking Titanic
For a thing to its peril mimic.

But is one to panic or gasp
Or for that matter fearful hands clasp,
When one has seen not a snake
Nor the as rubbery but fake:
When rather it is some irksome wasp,
Whose clear differences we grasp?

Quest To Breach the Chasm

We seem separate, sadly so
Culture's children of East and West
A horrid hole lurks humankind
Traipse through time to stand up straight
History's tears tell the true tale
Finding freedom from irksome isms
Inner inklings shine to the stars
Will wise hearts always pay the price
Wrought with woe, wars waged unwon

Face race, our original sin
Seeking healthcare for everyone
Reset concepts for world order
Find ways to treat our foes as friends
Cross grand gorges, greet the other

Spite

Just a little word with
So many guises 

Incoherent inefficient ineffective reaction
Inconsistent blame 
Vengeful malaise
Conscious disregard 
Blameless resolve
Sanctimonious irksome indifference
Creative revenge 
Wreckage for sport 
Intensive bigotry
Hyperbolic generalisation
Disinterestedness
Complacent autocratic dogma
Crass philistine opportunism
Nimble forgetfulness
Vigorous ignorant diatribe
Impotent nostalgia

All in a day’s work for those
Whose envy knows no bound

Perception - Mirror

The beauty you see in me is a reflection of you- Rumi
                          (Picture: 2)


What is beauty?

It’s a knotty problem to be solved.

Does it hide in our faces? Thoughts?

In our actions?  Or in our achievements?

Snow shielded ground is a setback for many beasts

But not for a polar bear

I felt the rainy day irksome.

When I walked with my fiancée in rain, I felt the rainy day awesome.

Where is beauty?

Perception matters, doesn't it?

L M N O P Q R S T

Light larkish lackadaisical lassie lithe and lean
Measured Mesopotamia’s millionth mammoth, not all mean
Nonetheless, noticing the level of lithium in a coffee bean,
Opposing ornery ocelots who are seldom city seen

Providing palatable parables to Patty, platypus who loves to preen
Quarreling with irksome quail-herders who captivated lassie’s queen
Resisting relatives reaching for gardenia’s gruesome globs of green
Stalwart soldiers seriously slicing sluggishness from a computer screen.
